Former Taliban Supporter Questions: U S Brings in Informant
A former financial backer of the Taliban arrived at Kandahar airbase in Afghanistan and offered information to U S investigators. Pentagon officials said he had funded Taliban & possibly al Qaida but was not detained. The disclosure comes as U S forces shift to new security measures at Kandahar, with Marines and Army units preparing patrols. Remains of seven Marines killed in a tanker plane crash in Pakistan were recovered and readied for transport to the U S, while detainees moved to Guantanamo Bay for interrogation.
